"I found this volume particularly enjoyable to read, filled as it is with interesting revelations about the processes of writing, communicating, and reading. Though directed toward the act of writing and its psychology, the volume is also rich in keen insights on the way the mind is organized, the psychic function of solitude, and the problems of interpersonal communication. A 'must' read for aspiring writers, for editors and members of editorial boards, it is also a 'should' read for clinicians and for readers of psychoanalytic works."- Ethel Spector Person, M.D., Columbia University Psychoanalytic Center for Training and Research

Barale, The Evaluation of Psychoanalytical Texts and the Imaginary Scenario in Which Their Writing Takes Place: Observations of an Editor.
